A federal appeals court will hear oral arguments in TiVo’s lawsuit against EchoStar on Oct. 4.

TiVo, the San Jose-based creator of digital video recording technology, filed a lawsuit in 2006 alleging that EchoStar, a satellite television provider, infringed on TiVo’s patented technology for pausing live TV programs and for recording one show while watching another.

A judge ordered EchoStar to pay $89.6 million in damages and to disable about 4 million TV boxes that use the technology. Englewood, Colo.-based EchoStar filed an appeal with a federal court in Washington, D.C., where the oral arguments will be heard.

“We had requested prompt oral argument and are pleased,” TiVo said in a statement. “This action brings us one step closer to resolution of EchoStar’s appeal and implementation of the district court’s injunction.”

In a video clip recorded by a student, a psychology instructor at Orange Coast College told her class that the election of Donald Trump was “an act of terrorism” – prompting an official complaint from the school’s Republican Club.
